    Correctly activate master keys in pre-1.7 KDBs
    
    Starting with 1.7, databases are created with actkvno tl-data in the
    K/M entry which gives the initial master key version an activation
    time of 0.  A database created before 1.7 will not have this tl-data,
    but we should behave in the same way as we do for a more recent
    database.
    
    Move the actkvno list synthesis code from krb5_dbe_fetch_act_key_list
    to krb5_dbe_lookup_actkvno so it applies to kdb5_util commands as well
    as libkadm5.  Synthesize the same list as we would have initialized
    the KDB with, with an activation time of 0 for the earliest master
    key.
